I haven't touch my wii (no pun intended.) for about 3 years. Recently just brought it out from the closet and was planning on using it just for netflix. Its been hard modded (solderless chip, dont remeber the name) and softmodded. How do I download the netflix wad on there without updating the firmware or messing up my system? I have a very old homebrew channel on there.

Solution: ModMii

Just use it and if you have any questions afterwards then we will gladly help, but at least do that first so we don't have to assume or figure out what things you are missing.

you will not mess up your wii. I would update with modmii. There is a link in my sig, and the guy who first replied sig. It'll ask some questions, just follow the guide. What app do you currently use to load your games

I thought the OP just wanted Netflix? I've never had Netflix myself, but I'm under the impression that you just download and install Netflix directly from the Shop Channel?

If the OP's system's outdated, why not just specify what they'll need in order to update the Shop Channel so they can download Netflix from it? Why suggest the roundabout way of using Modmii at all when you could simply let them know which specific files they'll need to download from NUS Downloader?

OP, you can update your Shop Channel by downloading the latest IOS56 and Shop Channel wad from NUS Downloader.

    in that case, there is no such thing as homebrew launcher for aroma
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    you have to launch your homebrews directly from the wii u menu

    there is a plugin that display them on the wii u menu, pretty sure it is enabled by default

    I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    nope
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    it is L+dpad down+ select

  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    then it is working, I also don't like that they did this but it is the only option you have if you are using aroma
